Zelenskyy enacts the National Security and Defence Council’s decision on synchronising sanctions with international partners

"In accordance with Article 107 of the Constitution of Ukraine, I decree: to put into effect the decision of the National Security and Defence Council of Ukraine dated 27 June 2025 ‘On synchronisation of sanctions pressure of Ukraine, the European Union and other members of the Group of Seven on the Russian Federation and related subjects’," the decree published on the president’s website reads.

Ukraine’s National Security and Defence Council’s decision on 27 June mandates that sanctions approved by partner states be synchronised within Ukraine’s jurisdiction by submitting them for consideration and approval no later than 15 days after the partner state or association’s decision takes effect.

The Cabinet of Ministers, Security Service of Ukraine (SSU) and National Bank were tasked with ensuring full implementation of sanctions approved by international partners in Ukraine.

The Cabinet, SSU, Foreign Intelligence Service and Office of the Prosecutor General were instructed to align Ukraine’s sanctions, related to Russia’s armed aggression, with those of the EU, the US and other states. This aims to impose "the most severe consequences for the Russian Federation for the criminal and unprovoked war unleashed against Ukraine and the subsequent tangible limitation of the defence industry potential of the aggressor state".
